are you serious cancer rates (in the developed world) are close to 50% and no one gives a rats ass, the percentage is way too fuckin high to be by accident.

General cancer statistics for 2010
An estimated 173,800 new cases of cancer (excluding about 75,500 non-melanoma skin cancers) and 76,200 deaths will occur in Canada in 2010.
·         Approximately 83,900 Canadian women will be diagnosed with cancer and an estimated 36,200 women will die of cancer.
·         Approximately 90,000 Canadian men will be diagnosed with cancer and an estimated 40,000 men will die of cancer.
·         On average, 3,340 Canadians will be diagnosed with cancer every week.
·         On average, 1,470 Canadians will die of cancer every week.
The risk of cancer increases with age: 43% of new cancer cases and 61% of cancer deaths will occur among those who are at least 70 years old. However, cancer can occur at all ages.
 
·         Lung, prostate, breast and colorectal cancer account for 50% of all new cancer cases every year.
·         Lung cancer accounts for over a quarter (27%) of all cancer deaths each year.
·         Breast cancer accounts for over a quarter (28%) of new cancer cases in women.
·         Prostate cancer accounts for over a quarter (27%) of new cancer cases in men.

Cancer causing chemicals found in cola coloring ingredient

(NaturalNews) The “caramel coloring” used to color all the top cola brands isn’t natural caramel coloring at all. Instead, it’s made by reacting sugars with ammonia and sulfites at high temperatures. This reaction results in the formation of 2-methylimidazole and 4-methylimidazole, both of which are chemicals documented by the U.S. government to cause cancer in mammals.
This is all coming to light thanks to an effort by the CSPI, which has now filed a regulatory petition to ban these chemicals [2] from colas (http://www.cspinet.org/new/20110216… [3]).
The National Toxicology Program has conducted animal studies [4] on these toxic chemicals found in colas, concluding there is “clear evidence” that 2-MI and 4-MI are animal carcinogens.
The call to ban these chemicals from use in foods was joined by five carcinogenesis experts who said, “The American public should not be exposed to any cancer [5] risk whatsoever as a result of consuming such chemicals, especially when they serve a non-essential, cosmetic purpose.”
